  • This Marine Captain Stood Tall
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 22, No. 3 (2000) This Marine Captain Stood Tall By John Gunn (Reprinted from Camp LeJeune Globe / 4-7) Death has claimed a former Marine captain who won the Medal of Honor on Iwo Jima three years after the Philadelphia Eagles offered him a contract. Bobby Dunlap had played football for Monmouth (Ill.) College. “Bobby, you’re 5-9, 155, if that. How and why did the EagIes ever try and sign you?” a reporter once asked. ln early 1942, the Eagles signed a number of free agents because WWII was taking a lot of their players (Dunlap was called up before training camp). Coach Greasy Neale invited “hordes of rookies,” a record book noted. The 2-9 Eagles used at least 23 playing their first pro season, for many their only season, and merged with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1943. In those days, lllinois might scrimmage a Monmouth or a Knox or another small Illinois school for a quarter or a half. (The L.A. Rams also did that in the early ‘50s with overmatched Navy and Marine teams from Southern California.) Famed Illinois coach Bob Zuppke recommended Dunlap, a back, to the Eagles because he made 10 or 12 tackles. The truth was that Bobby, like Ted Williams, had 10-20 or better vision. “I could read the quarterback's lips in the huddles and knew where the play was going,” Dunlap said. Zuppke obviously didn't know that. * * * * Rank and organization: Captain, U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, Company C, 1st Battalion, 26th Marines, 5th Marine Division.

  • Keynote Address for ROTC Commissioning Ceremony
    Keynote Address for ROTC Commissioning Ceremony University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Summer 2004 By Ray Elliott Good morning. I'm honored to have been asked to speak on this occasion as you young men are about to become commissioned officers and your family and friends mark this notable achievement in your life -- one that not only prompts a degree of well-deserved pride, but one that also challenges you to a heightened level of personal responsibility. And that challenge is what I'd like to focus on in my remarks this morning by sharing some anecdotes and observations that I hope will be of some value to you -- if not now, perhaps some day in the future. As Colonel Linder said, I served in the Marine Corps years ago as an enlisted Marine -- a grunt. I'm also a writer with a particular interest in how the experience of human beings in combat has a lasting effect on their lives, and that of their loved ones, long after the war itself is over. I'm currently working on a short novel about a dying Iwo Jima veteran. So my comments today are, no doubt, influenced by my background and this point of view. As you are commissioned in your respective branch of service, I understand none of you will be going to an infantry outfit. And I hope you won't ever have to go into combat. But regardless, you're still going to lead enlisted men and women just out of high school and career non-commissioned officers with a world of experience as you assume your part in the important job of serving and defending this country.

  • Iwo Jima Medal of Honor Hero to Present the First Ennis-Corsicana Trophy November 1, 2019
    Texas Veterans Parade, Corsicana www.texasveteransparade.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Wednesday, October 2, 2019 MEDIA CONTACTS Iwo Jima Medal of Honor Hero to Present the First Ennis-Corsicana Trophy November 1, 2019 Corsicana, Texas- The Texas Veterans Parade, in conjunction with the Bill McNutt Family Fund, announces the creation of the Medal of Honor Trophy to be awarded each time the Ennis Lions and Corsicana Tigers play football. The trophy honors an American hero and Medal of Honor recipient from each High School, Jack Lummus from Ennis and the battle for Iwo Jima in World War II, and Candelario "Spider" Garcia, from Corsicana and the Vietnam war. The trophy will be kept by the winning school's athletic department until the next game is played. The last living Medal of Honor holder from Iwo Jima and the Pacific War, Mr. Hershel "Woody" Williams will be at the Ennis/Corsicana game on Friday, November 1, 2019, to honor his fellow Iwo Jima Marine, Jack Lummus. He will flip the coin prior to the game at Tiger Stadium in Corsicana and present the trophy. Mr. Williams flipped the coin at Superbowl 52, played in Minnesota between the Patriots and the Eagles. Retired Marine Corporal, Woody Williams of West Virginia said "It is unique that two Texas towns and high schools, so close together, would both have Medal of Honor recipients. I am happy to get to pay tribute to my fellow combat veteran from Iwo Jima, Jack Lummus and to Spider Garcia, by flipping the coin at this year's game." 1 Mr.

  • Giant of a Man: Jack Lummus
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 9, No. 5 (1987) GIANT OF A MAN: JACK LUMMUS By John Gunn Reprinted from the Orange County Register, July 27, 1986 The Marine Corps lieutenant, after relentlessly leading his platoon against Japanese positions on Iwo Jima for two days and nights and almost single-handedly wiping out three fortifications, stepped on a land mine just before the unit reached its objective in the bitter World War II campaign. His legs were blown off. But after Lt. Jack Lummus, 29, of the 27th Marine Division, was carried on a stretcher to an aid station, he told a surprised surgeon, "I guess the New York Giants have lost the services of a damn good end." His stamina enabled him to remain conscious and he raised himself briefly on an elbow. Through the ordeal, he often smiled. But despite the transfusion of 18 pints of blood, he died from the land-mine blast and earlier wounds on D plus 17 (17 days after D-Day), March 8, 1945. He was among the 1,101 Marine officers and 22,056 enlisted personnel killed or wounded in capturing the 7-square-mile, pork-chop- shaped island and its 1,500 caves and 30 miles of tunnels. "His dauntless leadership and unwavering devotion to duty throughout sustain and enhance the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life in the service of his country," said the Medal of Honor citation signed by President Truman. From such accounts are legends born. But Lummus, an end with the Eastern Division champion New York Giants of 1941 and one of two National Football League players to win the Medal of Honor, the nation's highest award for heroism, largely had been forgotten.

  • Nfl & Cardinals to Honor Pat Tillman
    NFL & CARDINALS TO HONOR PAT TILLMAN Arizona Cardinals safety PAT TILLMAN – the first NFL player to be killed in combat since the Vietnam War – will be honored this season by the NFL and his former team. Tillman left the NFL in 2002 to join the U.S. Army with his brother KEVIN to fight in the cause of freedom. Eventually qualifying for the elite Army Rangers light infantry fighting unit with his brother, Tillman served tours in Iraq and Afghanistan before being killed in the Khost province of Afghanistan on April 22 in a firefight with insurgents. The NFL and the Cardinals have announced that players on all 32 teams will wear a No. 40 decal (above) – Tillman’s Cardinals uniform number – on their helmets on September 19, Arizona’s home opener, with the Cardinals then wearing it the entire season. The Cardinals will honor Tillman at their home opener. The team has announced several additional ways in which they will salute their fallen hero. The club will name the plaza surrounding the perimeter of the new Cardinals stadium, scheduled to open in 2006, as the “Pat Tillman Freedom Plaza.” “Pat exhibited the finest qualities of humanity – loyalty, integrity and excellence – and we are honored to show our appreciation to this citizen soldier,” said Cardinals President WILLIAM V. BIDWILL. The team also will retire Tillman’s number, only the fifth time this has happened in the club’s 84-year history. Additionally, the Cardinals and Tillman’s alma mater, Arizona State, have announced the formation of the Pat Tillman Memorial Scholarship Award.
